Week 0 · at KeyportThe line: Whippany Park by 22. Win by more and the Strength Index goes up; win by less and it slips a little. Either way, the win adds power points. Margins over 35 count as 35.

Week 8 · at Glen RidgeWhippany Park by 1 · Strength Index is locked after Week 7, so the margin here doesn’t count
